About The Role

As a Junior Java Developer, you will help design and implement cutting‑edge agentic workflows and AI‑driven agents. This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, artificial intelligence, and distributed systems—driving the development of intelligent automation that empowers users to orchestrate complex tasks seamlessly.

You will work closely with product owners, UI / UX designers, and other developers to build and optimize systems that enable autonomous and semi‑autonomous agents to interact with data, APIs, and users.

The work we do is diverse, challenging, and rewarding. Agility PR Solutions develops state‑of‑the‑art tools that help public relations professionals target media influencers and derive intelligent insights from the media.

The features you build will leverage robust Java‑based RESTful services within our big‑data backend, built on technologies such as Hadoop and Solr and deployed to a high‑availability production environment. You will solve problems related to large‑scale data processing, distributed workloads, and process synchronization. You will also participate in refactoring as we continually strive for the highest code quality.

At Agility PR Solutions, we have a strong team ethic, so collaboration is essential—as is a positive attitude toward learning new skills and sharing knowledge with the team.

AI Usage

We use technology to make hiring smarter, faster, and more personal, never less human. Artificial intelligence (AI) tools help us manage applications efficiently and highlight qualifications that align with each role, allowing our recruiters to focus more on meaningful conversations with candidates.

AI does not make hiring decisions at Agility. Every decision is made by people, our hiring managers and recruitment professionals, who are trained to apply sound judgment and equitable practices at every stage.

We believe technology exists to amplify human insight, not replace it. That belief shapes how we build relationships, tell stories, and grow our teams.

At Agility, we strive every day to build a more inclusive work environment and introduce tools that enable it. We strongly encourage applications from all people regardless of race, religion, gender, age, disability status or sexual orientation.

Even if you find yourself not checking all the boxes of our listed requirements but you are excited about this opportunity, we’d love to hear from you anyway. Our Talent Acquisition team will review your application for this role, and other potential role matches open now or in the future.

If, at any stage of the application process, you require accommodation owing to disability or a medical need, please let us know at careers@agilitypr.com for us to make appropriate arrangements.

Thank you for your time in reviewing this opportunity, and we hope to hear from you should you find this the right fit!
